The term distortion is often applied interchangeably with reduced image quality. However, distortion is an individual aberration that does not reduce the information in the image; most aberrations mix information together to create image blur, distortion simply misplaces information geometrically. This means that known distortion can be mapped or calculated and removed from an image, whereas information from other aberrations is lost and cannot easily be recreated. More details on other aberrations can be found in Aberrations.
